Well, I finished up Jennifer's 5th birthday card. Ever since she was born on Halloween, her Mom has her birthday picture taken with the number of pumpkins that she is old. I don't know what she will do when she reaches 21!! So I decided to make he card with 5 pumpkins on it. I used thick Very Vanilla CS for my base card and my layer of Old Olive was embossed with the Layered Leaves Embossing Folder.
I used the # of Years die to cut out my #5 in orange glimmer paper and mounted it on some cardboard so it would stand out better and popped it up. My sentiment was also from the # of Years stamp set. I used the Patterned Pumpkins Thinlets Dies to cut out some pumpkins from last year's Halloween DSP. For my inside, I used the Party Pop up die for my birthday sentiment.
I cut my CS 1/2 smaller and colored in my greeting. In the Ready to Pop stamp set they had this cute stamp that reminded me of a vine which I stamped on each side in Old Olive. Then I fussy cut some small pumpkins from the DSP. I really liked how it turned out.
Since I'm not mailing the card, I put some extra pumpkins on the envelope. Now all I have to do is wrap up her presents and get to NJ tomorrow before 10AM. Grandma's party is in the afternoon, so it will be a busy day tomorrow. We are definitely going to miss celebrating her birthday on Halloween, but I'm sure she will have lots to tell when they get home from Disney! Have a great weekend!
